A lot of people like the BMR lower control arms. They will reduce wheel hop for sure, but if your car is lowered, you might have to install relocation brackets to compensate.

If your interested in CHE products, they are running a Superbowl sale through half-time tomorrow with everything 10% off (free shipping) and should the Steelers win, they are giving a 1% rebate for every point in the margin of victory (up to 20% off). Just ordered my k-member & torque limiters to take advantage of this deal. ALso have their LCA bracket and it comes highly recommended

Go with Metco LCAs. I had Spohns and the bushings couldn't handle the pressure. I now have Metcos and they are doing great. Cost a little more, but worth it.
